    Yes, western union or moneygram (but you'll pay alot in fees) is good, and I like the idea of using paypal to transfer the money, but have you thought about ICICI Outward Remittance? Its supposed to be the fastest way.

    According to Reserve bank of India rules, you cannot use services like Western Union, Ikobo, Xoom & MoneyGram to send money from India to abroad. You can receive money in India using these services but cannot send money out of India.
    You have only 2 options
    1) Wire Transfer
    2) Foreign Currency Demand Draft
